SUCCESS STORY
Meet Rachel
Life Changing
“After having a horrific accident, I knew I needed a life change and had always dreamed of becoming a makeup artist.
I looked into many school but chose Artists Within after emailing the team, they were very patient with all my questions! I also loved that the owner of the academy was involved day to day, and how knowledgable she was about the industry. It felt like a it would positive and encouraging experience which is what I needed.
Because of my accident I wasn’t sure I could attend weekly virtual meetings, so opted hesitantly for the online option. The video demos and content were extremely detailed. I didn’t once second guess my online decision once I started.
I went on to take the Honors Makeup Diploma, and have been focusing primarily on movie productions for the last three years. I love that I have the knowledge to also take advantage of making large amounts of money doing weddings when the film work isn’t as demanding.
These courses really prepared me for every aspect of the industry, I felt very confident when I finished, and have really exceeded my own expectations of myself. I am so thankful I took this path. I would never have imagined I would have gained so much knowledge from an online course!“
